Blc. Marge Putnam is blooming


My lanai is a riot of color right now.  While many of you are preparing for winter,
we in Florida are enjoying the very best time of year.  After a wet, wet 
summer, it is dry now and orchids are blooming.  They are so beautiful, I hesitate
to sketch them for some reason.  Marge Putnam now has about 30 blooms.  Here,
she is just getting started.
Happy PPF

30 blooms? Let's hear it for good old Marge!
This is a great sketch, I think you should be sketching orchids all day long.

Lovely and glad you drew and painted them. Yesterday I visited my aunt who had an orchid with many many blooms, unfortunately I neglected to count them but I'd never seen anything like it. HPPF!
